Only Leao can overturn the derby that is worth the Champions League

Inter won 2-0, but are dissatisfied. Milan came out beaten, but not enough to feel doomed. In six days the field will sweep away any doubts

At the triple whistle from Gil Manzano, with one piece of San Siro celebrating and the other brooding, the six days of the paradox have officially begun. Inter thundered the first round of the Champions League semi-final, yet it is precisely the Nerazzurri who have to bask in a strange sensation, halfway between doubt and apotheosis: it is never possible to win the derby with two goals went with a view of Istanbul and at the same time remain dissatisfied? The first twenty minutes of the night at the Meazza were marked by an overflowing Inter tide and the damage caused by the Dzeko-Mkhitaryan duo seemed even small. Inter mistress, overflowing, against all odds that foreshadowed a first confrontation imbued with prudence and fear. And instead the 0-2, in the end, even turns out to be a bargain for a Milan that appeared bewildered and distracted in the presence of their city rivals. In fact, it keeps a hole open, however tiny and very thin, in which to try to jump with hope and recklessness.
